Attributes

Description

The Phrase element in DocBook has no specific semantic.
It is provided as a wrapper around a selection of words smaller than a
paragraph so that it is possible to provide an ID or other attributes for them.

For example, if you are making note of changes to a document using one
of the effectivity attributes, you might use Phrase to
mark up specific sentences with revisions.

Processing expectations

Future Changes

element will be discarded in DocBook V4.0. It will no longer be available
in the content model of this element.
